You'll explore the various definitions of wellbeing and social explanations for health inequalities based on social class, ethnicity, gender and age. You'll discuss issues including disability and unemployment, sickness/absence, and chronic health issues and look at individualised workplace wellbeing support.

By the time you graduate, you'll be well-prepared to make a positive contribution to further research or practice in health and wellbeing in the workplace.

The assessment strategy for the programme aims to give frequent opportunities for formative feedback to contribute towards the development of summative assessments.
